I want to claim a non-generic TikTok username. The account is inactive, zero posts and has 16 followers. Does anyone have any tips or is able to do it within a reasonable price? I have that username on IG, YT and the domain name, the only place that's left is TikTok.

Tough one, almost impossible unless you have a trademarked brand.

I see. What about people who claim to have internal reps that have the power to do it? Could that work or is it most likely a scam?

Yes, it’s definitely possible – but the cost is quite high for a fully verified TikTok account with an official blue tick

Definitely possible, there's a whole new market out there for social media services like this.

Large budgets are required ($2000+ USD)

TikTok doesn’t really release inactive usernames, so it’s tough. Best bet is to report trademark if you own it or just wait and try to grab it when it’s freed.
